Why is my ipod in not working with my car stereo?

i have the stereo hooked up and everything but my ipod doesnt work with the stereo, but my ipod nano works fine with it. i dont understand what its wrong.

Like I said, the Classic doesn't seem to work with many car head units and other 3rd party accessories (something to do with the way Apple have changed the way an iPod recognizes and interacts with these accessories).
Have a look at some of the other threads here that also discuss this.
You would be better off contacting the maker of the car stereos.

Why is my iPod touch not working with my car stereo after the update?

I updated to iOS 6 and now my iPod will not play when I plug into my car stereo with the USB port and cable. I am very frustrated!

You can try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
However, sometime an iOS update breaks compatibility. If that is the case you will have to wait for either the car manufacturer or Apple to issue a an update to correct the problem.

IPod Mini not working with new car stereo

I just got a 2007 Sienna in which the audio system includes an AUX port for connecting to my iPod. However, when I connect the two (using a RadioShack Gold Series audio dubbing cable recommended by RadioShack), nothing happens. My iPod is not locked, and it works with headphones and also through the FM transmitter (although the latter not very well at all).
Is there an iPod setting that I am missing? Do I have the wrong cable? Is there a problem with my car's audio system?
Any advice/suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Doh. Never mind. I just figured out it was a volume problem.

IOS 4.x.x. not working with some car stereos?

This last friday I bought a Pioneer car stereo, the 4200ub to be exact, and whenever I try to use the usb input on it it gets error-19. Error-19 is a communication error with the stereo and the iPhone. I've tried new cables, to reboot the phone, unplugged it and plugged it back in, restarted the car, and restored the iPhone. I've posted on the Crutchfield forums about this issue and they seem to think its an issue with the iPhone new firmware, iOS 4.x.x. They say it has screwed up compatibility for most alpine car stereos and some pioneer and clarion. I don't know what else to do but, if this issue isn't fixed soon I guess i'm going to have to rma the radio.

I bought an iphone 4 at the end of December so I'm not sure what iOS I was running. I just bought a new car stereo system 2 weeks ago to use with my iPhone.
I spent 2 grand on Alpine head unit and Focal components and sub. My phone worked fine through the USB on the drive home.
That night I updated to 4.3.1. Problems appeared immediately. Static hiss and pops and crackles. I cannot listen to my music. Terrible Apple. Terrible. Please fix. I chose my stereo based on iphone compatibility and ease of use through USB connection. The update rendered it all useless the day I spent a ton of money.
I've left feedback. I guess I'll post in any related forum. Let's try to make some noise so Apple can address this issue.
PLEASE!
- A poor pathetic fool who spent way more than he should have on his car stereo only to regret it after updating to iOS 4.3.1

Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime

Why Model MD297AE/A is not working with Fcae time and Model MD293C/A is working in UAE with Facetime.
In fact I have given my iPhone to my daughter to use in Canada (purchased from UAE ISP) she is unable to use Face Time within Canada. ?
Is it possibile to activate FaceTime in Canada if iPhone is purchase from UAE.
Purchase under Points by ISP (No contract)
Thanks
Abbas

Hello sir
I agree what u replied for the above question, but because of the UAE request, you cannot deactivate the facetime completely from this iphone, they should stop working through SIM network. The iphone is a universal mobile which can travel all over the world, many tourist people will suffer due to that, pls re-consider in taking back and try to make it upgrading this software.
Thanks

Why does my ipod no longer work with my alpine car stereo

my ipod connects directly to my alpine car stereo and up til now it has worked great. i recently synced my ipod to my computer and i think it updated the software on my ipod and now my ipod no longer works with my alpine stereo. what is up? did apple change something that would make my ipod no longer compatible with my car stereo? if so, what do i do? i have about $1000 invested in my car stereo and ipod specifically for car use. this is a serious issue for me! i just want my ipod to work like it did…
i just connected my friends ipod and it works fine. he has version 1.1.1 software on his. i have version 2.3 on mine. since my ipod works fine by itself i’m assuming that the incompatibility between my ipod and my alpine is due to the software update.
here again, what do i do? how can i get an older version of software back on to my ipod?
ipod v.2.3 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

what kind of connection do you have? do you use the ipod 30 pin cable that connects directly to the head unit? it so, maybe you could get help on the alpine site, or a similar site?it could just be a bad connection. you may just have to go oldschool and use rca cables and plug those in...

Ever since I updated iTunes my iPods will not sync with my cars

Ever since I updated iTunes my iPods will not sync with my cars.I have a 30g and 60g 5th gen iPods that I use in my two car. In my cars I have a dealer installed integration module so that I can navigate my I pods play list artist and song titles using the radio itself. Ever since that last iTunes update 7.3.1. I no longer am able to use this feature. I used my sister’s 30g iPod that she did has not updated and the system works fine. Can someone help me with this problem.

I have had an Alpine head unit in my car with the ipod connection for about a year and it has worked fine until recently. Now I get an error message on the ipod that reads, "The currently attached accessory is not supported by this ipod." I have tried connecting a buddy's ipod to my car stereo, and his still works fine with it. I've done the 5 R's, tried going back to an older version of itunes as Alpine suggested. My next step will be going to the Apple store with an appointment, seeing what they say.

IPOD TOUCH NOT WORKING WITH ITUNES

I am using:
iPod Touch 16GB 1.1.4 (With $25 Software Upgrade)
Windows Vista Premium Edition
iTunes 7.6.2
Whenever I connect my iPod, the device connect sound is made and it shows up in the my computer window, but it will not show up or sync with iTunes.
I HAVE ALREADY TRIED THE FOLLOWING:
Reseting the computer
Reseting the iPod
Using a different USB port
Using a different cable
Erasing ALL of the iPod's contents (Yes I lost my $25 update as well)
Restarting the "APPLE MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORT" in the "systems" application
...As well as many other things, all with absolutely NO results.
I have tried to manage my ipod through other programs, nothing seems to work. I connected the iPod to a different computer and everything worked fine.
I ASSUME the problem has something to do with the iPod Touch's drivers; for whatever reason they might be corrupted or installed incorrectly, thus preventing the iPod from automatically reinstalling them as well as preventing the possibility of syncing.
My question is, how can I reinstall the drivers without having the iPod touch do it automatically?
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

I fixed the problem myself.
If anyone else has this same problem and is looking to fix it, here is what I did.
I found this on another site:
"Okay well I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple trying to fix this problem. The guy I talked to seemed to have delt with this problem before. He tould me that Apple was getting numerous calls about the iPod touch not connecting with iTunes. So here is the solution that worked for me.
The first thing you must do it uninstall iTunes and Quicktime using the controll pannel, add/remove hardware, on your windows computer. Once you have uninstalled both of thoes programes go ahead and look for anything else that is Apple and uninstall them as well. There should be an Apple updater or driver that is very critical to uninstall, this was the cause of iTunes not recognizing the new iPod Touch. Next make shure you have the very latest update for Windows on your computer, you can check this on Microsofts web page. Finnaly once you are shure you have UNINSTALLED EVERYTHING that says Apple, iTunes, or Quick time restart your computer and MAKE SHURE THAT YOUR IPOD IS NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR COMPUTER. Then download the newest version of iTunes and install it. Once the installation is complete go ahead and connect the iPod Touch and everything should work.
I am not shure if this will work for everyone but in my situation it worked. I hope it helps some of you out there!!"
That worked like a ******* charm. Hope this helps.

Why my i pod is not working with out charger

hey, my i pod is not working with out the charger plugged into it?!

What do you mean? Please be more precised so I may help you father. If it is plugged in, but won't open. You must wait at least 5 minutes before using it again. Ipod need a certain amount of power for it to start. Or even when its plugged in but wont charge, make sure it is connected very well to the computer or the power outlet to the Ipod. Lastly, if you are charging at another place, for example in your friend's house. The voltage power may be different from where you mostly charge it from. But if it isn't plugged. Maybe it need to be charged?
Hope this helps.

IPod Touch not working with Verizon fivespot modem

I cannot get my iPod Touch to work with my Verizon Fivespot hotspot. The hot spot shows up in the WAN settings, but when I try to reach the internet it says it is not available. The Touch works fine with my home hotspot. Any ideas?

Do other devices work with it? What says "not available"? Is it Safari when you try to connect to a website? If you go into the network settings what IP address is assigned to the iPod? Do wifif arc show on the upper left? Have you looked at the documentation for the Verizon product?

IPod will not work with docking stations

My 5th gen iPod works fine except it will not work with docking stations. I can sync it with my computer and it plays fine, just won't work with docking stations and other accessories like the Belkin FM radio converter. I bought a iMode boom box and it does not work properly with my iPod.
Any ideas??

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
Also:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
